PubMed abstracts

Many of the articles in PubMed have abstracts that summarize the article contents. If you want to look at an abstract of one citation, click on the authors' names.

If you want to see the abstracts of several citations at one time:

  1. Click the small box to the left of each citation you want.
  2. Click on the down arrow just to the right of "Display" and select "Abstract" from the menu.
  3. Click on "Display".
